Before I could say anything, Simone yelled excitedly, “Irvin, you’re here! Quick, call the police so they can arrest this bitch!”

I frowned, annoyed to learn that Julianne was also in this hospital,
“Irvin, you know about the bitch’s lover? He’s so protective of her! He protected her when I was trying to hit her earlier!” Simone said, thinking that this would make Irvin hate me even

She wanted him to think that I was cheating on him with Shaun, so that he could divorce me without giving me anything.

When Simone finally fell silent, Irvin stepped forward and grabbed my arm. “Since you’re here, come with me to apologize to Lianne. Let’s put this matter behind us.”
